Urgent Pro-Life Action Needed! Once again, we are pleading for your pro-active assistance.  Every pro-life American must tell Congress to: "VOTE AGAINST ANY HEALTH CARE BILL THAN DOES NOT EXPLICITLY EXCLUDE ABORTION."  As you know, the pending Health care bills in Congress could create the largest expansion of abortion since Roe v. Wade.  WE CANNOT LET THIS HAPPEN.

The healthcare reform legislation currently before Congress contains an abortion mandate that is a grave threat to human life. The bill's language will result in federally mandated abortion coverage by nearly all health plans, recruitment of abortion doctors into local health networks, and the nullification of many state laws that place reasonable limits on abortion.

The National Right to Life Committee (NRLC) has called this legislation the "largest expansion of abortion since Roe v. Wade."

We urge you to write to your senators and congressman today.  Click here where you can learn more about the health legislation and send a message to your two senators and congressman.

Please visit our Pro-Life section for more information.

Family and Knight of the Year - 2009 We would like to recognize and congratulate Ivan & Lucille Lazure for being chosen as the Family of the Year and Paul Beaucage for being chosen as the Knight of the Year. Their continued participation and dedication in church life, family life and community life is a gift and beautiful example for all of us to follow.
